Tray Mountain, rising 4,430 feet in northern Georgia, is the state's seventh-highest peak and part of both the Chattahoochee National Forest and the Tray Mountain Wilderness. The line between White and Towns counties crosses the mountain, with the summit in Towns County and a lower section reaching into Habersham County. Known for sweeping views toward North Carolina's Nantahala Mountains and Georgia's Blue Ridge, it is also crossed by the Appalachian Trail, making it a familiar landmark for hikers. Its name likely evolved from Trail Mountain, reflecting the routes that long traversed it and its enduring association with travel and scenery.
